There is a vaccination program on going in Greece, so I'm pretty sure that the country will be open in a few months. For sure the government has been really restrictive in terms of the lockdown and how much time people were forced to spend in their homes. Still you need to remember that Greece is a lovely place to visit and the big portion of its population relies on the tourism sector to make a living. We still keep in contact with our tour guides from Private Transfers In Athens | Private Transfers In Greece –Athens transfers as they treated us like family when we visited Greece and they say they can't wait to have the millions of tourists they used to have back in the country this summer.

I have seen that they are finally opening soon the tourism in the country which is great news! I'm looking forward to visiting Santorini in July!We are vaccinated, so it's a great chance for us to enjoy the Mediterranean Sea in a quieter mode this time. I'm pretty hyped up hearing that they might bring direct flights from the UK to Santorini in the next months. We have never been there before and it's the 10th anniversary of our marriage, so my husband wants to do something romantic and special. I'm already arranging the hotels and group travel tours for us and I'm pretty sure that the sunset will have a smoothening effect on the last year which has been so hard for us.
